摘要

研究表明，在期刊上发表的定性犯罪学研究很少。新自由主义意识形态在英国占据主导地位，促进竞争和可量化的成功。随着新自由主义叙事渗透到学术界的运作中，研究人员需要迎合他们的方法选择，以适应指标和武断的大学目标。因此，频繁在知名期刊上发表论文的压力会迫使学者们将研究数量置于质量之上。由于定性方法往往需要更多的时间来进行，并且固有地传达了一个更复杂的伦理过程，研究人员可能倾向于更快、更方便的方法，从而损害了质量理论研究。

Political Ideology and Research: How Neoliberalism Can Explain the Paucity of Qualitative Criminological Research

Research has demonstrated that there is a paucity of qualitative criminological research published in journals. Neoliberal ideology reigns hegemonic in the United Kingdom, promoting competition and quantifiable success. With neoliberal narratives infiltrating the functioning of academia, researchers are required to cater their methodological choices to suit metrics and arbitrary university goals. Consequently, the pressure to publish frequently and in prestigious journals can coerce academics into prioritizing research quantity above quality. As qualitative methodologies often require more time to conduct and inherently convey a more complex ethical process, researchers can favor the quicker, convenient methods to the detriment of quality theoretical research.
